Jimmy From Michigan –
I am on my second box of 1,000 and use the WLR for all of my cartridges up to a 300 win mag. With all the options for powder and bullets, it is nice to be able to use one primer for everything (I load for nine cartridges from a 22-250 to 300 win mag). Zero misfires and I never had a problem igniting 70 gains of powder on a 10 degree day.
